The death of Winter is accompanied by the birth of Spring. The first bud on the stripped tree is a welcome sign of the coming days of balmy weather and blue skies. As the flowers reappear and the trees blossom, our spirits are lifted and our hearts swell. Out come the fishing rods and tennis rackets, shorts and bare-back dresses, sandals and bathing suits, golf bags and picnic baskets. An epidemic of spring fever spreads over the campus. Few students lack the symptoms: pathetic, lazy smiles; faraway gazes; optimistic day-dreams. Couples stroll hand in hand and pause for a breathless moment neath the swaying willows. The lake is placid and the swans glide with grace and ease across its blue surface. Spring at Furman is incredibly beautiful. The yellow-bells and azaleas nod gently to the cherry blossoms and dogwoods. The new grass sparkles in the morning dew. The sun filtering through the mist on the lake crowns the campus with a shiny halo. At dusk the crickets sing, adding their mirth to the chorus of birds who sing in daily concert. And we marvel.

The end of Christmas holidays finds us behind in work but determined not to wind up in a last-minute panic. Fun and frolic are ignored while we pick up loose ends and fight against time to finish semester assignments. We try to dilate our minds and suck in scattered information, holding our breaths, lest time runs out. The wheels of extra-curricular activity screech to a stop as we don our scholarly robes of concentration and analytical awareness. Exams hit like an exploding bomb. And they keep hitting one after the other in a week-long siege. At the end of the purging, the campus lies quiet for a brief respite. Then the troops return, undaunted and fiercely determined to stick it out through another battle.

Spring is the symbol of new life, of new beginnings. It is the product of Providential love. As it comes to us from a great and bountiful love, so it teaches us the joy of loving. Spring is an innate part of romance. It brings to us silver moons, twikling stars, serenades of winds and birds, glittering waterfalls, brilliant flowers, pastel tints of dawn and dusk. Against the backdrop of balmy days and azure skies, we learn to love, and in loving we find happiness. Venus smiles upon us, for we have found the secret of the ages. is
